How many here quilted before the rotary cutter? What quilts did you make using the old templates and sissors ?
I made many quilts before the rotary cutter came my way, using the cardboard template and scissors. I then hand quilted everything until the past few years when arthritis caused me to put up the hoop and all handquilting.
I do machine quilted now and I use all modern tools possible.
